    Many studies have shown differences in the way individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) process auditory information when compared to typically developing peers. These include differences in sensitivity to sounds, in electrophysiological responding, and in responding to behavioral tasks that utilize (Central) Auditory Processing ((C)AP) skills. The current study aimed to expand this literature by examining the relationship between ASD and (C)AP across all six associated skills (i.e., localization/lateralization, discrimination, pattern recognition, temporal aspects, performance with competing signals, and performance with degraded signals). The purpose was to determine 1) patterns of responding among a group of individuals with ASD for subtests that address the (C)AP skill areas and 2) the association between (C)AP subtest and composite scores for a group of individuals wi..
